Rubbish comment mate.

A brilliant coaching performance against the odds tonight.

If it weren't for a few dodgy decisions we had this.

Umm no.

We needed a totally 100 % fit ruck.... if we only had one.. 

We needed to take Max away from all the ILLEGAL  scragging..   We needed to be clever we weren't.  That's down to the Coaches.  Stafford obviously has nfi.  Why does Goody allow that ?? 

We can't kick for [censored]....thats someone's dept. 

There were elements we did better tonight.

But lost at selection...and direction.

 

I will say... the 2 blokes in yellow should be in the club votes for Carlton. 

 

To all the happy clappers...yeah.. Goodwin is a [censored] genius.

Be proud Simon... grasp it...own it...    

OUT IN SETS 2 YEARS RUNNING 

9.17  fmd...

Agree, picked absolutely the right team. 

Need a big summer of skill work but you can’t drastically improve skills of limited players with no key forwards to influence ball movement.

Healthy forwards and a touch of class will change things. Just a matter of whether we can snag a couple of ready to play forward and mid options, plus develop the likes of Howes, Woey, Laurie, Chandler who can potentially all take us forward.

No he didn't 

You're somewhat skewed in your understanding mate.

Thought you knew better. My bad

I dont really mind Insane or Genius... but he's definitely not the latter.

He's a victim and a slave to his ID

I can understand having your ideas but not seeing their fallibility is another thing.

Our game plan is a bit of a dogs breakfast..

And the coaches need replacing.

Lack of composure, lack of skill development. For the most part our players have either regressed or stagnated.

Trac same wobbles from last year, Kozzy gets carried away by the emotions, even Fritsch looked woobly in these finals.

Our most accurate kicks are JVR and Fritta. Need one KPF that can mark our long bombs and kick goals.

That one KPF would be Petty. When he went down, so did our chances this year.

For my mind we need a shake up of the assistant group again to freshen the messages up. Yze off to Tigers, Stafford out all together and perhaps choccos goal kicking practice can be quietly shut down

Chocco's certainly not doing the learn to kick footys he's trying to sell any favours.

Staffords gotta go.
He's had years to sort this forward line.
But hasn't done anything.
At all.

I think Goodwin coached quite well tonight. He got the game on our terms for large parts of each quarter.

The reality is that we didn’t take our chances as a team with the ball in hand. There’s not much a coach can do in that circumstance.

Simon can take accountability for the game style, and movement of the ball to an extent, but those final shots at goal aren’t on him. Max just needed to stand up and kick one of his 2 shots. Fritsch the same.

Unfortunately Weideman lacked the physicality that JVR relishes on the field.

It's the single thing that prevented him to become a top 10 forward in the AFL.

And his accuracy from set shots.

Truth be told, AFL coaches get great tenure and loyalty. If this was UK or American sport, he’d be walking on eggshells with the list he’s got and the finals output over the past two seasons. Yes, goal kicking yips cost us both games, but management/coaches wear it. EPL team managers get sacked months into the following season after winning silverware.

Against the odds? Why was that ? We gave them the game through our poor and undisciplined play. 
Kossie nearlly won us the game but he needs disciplinine.

EPL is a league without any salary cap restrictions funded by blood money. I prefer the AFL way.

That has to be on the head coach surely. And if it happens in 2 finals in a row, he's going to have to alter and evolve his coaching philosophy over summer, as the club isn't getting it done enough against the big dogs.

 

Agreed Great call.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.
